Utah Governor Spencer Cox discusses Meta’s settlement, arguing the amount should have been much higher, yet argues the more consequential result is the equitable relief requiring child accounts, age-gating, parental controls, algorithm changes, overnight restrictions and healthy pauses. Cox thinks Meta buried research showing significant harms to young users and says Utah will use the money to mitigate those harms, help struggling children, and create more opportunities for them in the real world. Cox spoke with Bloomberg's Joe Mathieu and Tyler Kendall.
